Lets's calculate LCM of 964,1596
2 | 964, 1596 |
2 | 482, 798 |
241, 399 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 241 x 399 = 384636
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/384636
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1423/964,5215/1596 is 1/384636
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 964,1596 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(964,1596) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(964,1596) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(964,1596) = ( 964 × 1596 ) / 4
LCM(964,1596) = 1538544 / 4
LCM(964,1596) = 384636
